BXBX NOVEL Chapter 584 Life Core
If it was before, Leo would have not worried much; however, without all his talents, it would be very difficult to protect himself from the sneak attacks of the Devil Serpent.
Therefore, Leo resumed his punches without showing any intention of letting it go.
As for finding the Moonstone Roses, Leo had an entire day to search. Also, who knows what kinds of dangers are lurking on the third floor?
Hence, Leo didn\'t want to take any risks.
"Please…I will…not try any sneak attacks on you and help you complete the challenge of this floor."
Previously, the Devil Serpent was having thoughts of launching a sneak attack on Leo if he spared his life; however, seeing how the human in front of him was not sparing its life, made it anxious.
"Don\'t bother saying such words, it\'s useless. Unless I can control your life and death with a thought, I will spare your life."
Leo scoffed at the Devil Serpent.
"Hiss…wait…wait…I will give you the control over my life and death."
The Devil Serpent hissed in frustration before saying something that made Leo stop his punches.
"Go on and explain to me in detail."
Leo knew about the contracts with the beasts and monsters; however, they are exclusive to those who have beast-taming talents.
Even though Leo has a super special talent like [Godly Beast Tamer], he could not use it to tame the Devil Serpent properly.
"I…will give you my Life Core. If I try anything funny, you can just crush it which would end my life in an instant."
While saying that, a shining and small black-coloured bead came out of his mouth and landed in Leo\'s hands.
\'Ding,
Item Name: Life Core (Devil).
Attribute: Darkness
Information: The life of a beast is connected to the life core. As long as the life core is intact, even if the beast\'s body got destroyed, it could slowly regenerate a new body from the life core.
Note: If someone drops their blood on the life core of a beast, its life will be connected to that someone. If he dies, the beast will die and at the same time, if the beast dies, the master will be seriously injured.
As soon as Leo touched the shining black bead, the system sent the information regarding it which made Leo\'s eyes lit up.
\'With this life core in my hands, I don\'t have to worry about its sneak attacks from the devil serpent.\'
Leo silently muttered to himself as he focused on the last part of the information sent by the system.
\'I can use that method to make it my beast companion. I wonder whether I can take it out of this third floor and take it into the other floors with me.\'
Outside the God Tower, Leo had many beast and monster followers; however, inside the God Tower, he had no one.
So, he was thinking of taking the Devil Serpent as his beast companion so that it could help him in clearing the floss in the God Tower.
However, he was not sure whether he could take it with him to the other floors or not.
\'Let it be, there is no harm in giving it a try.\'
Since there were no disadvantages in taking in the Devil Serpent as his beast companion, Leo decided to try it.
"Human, shall we go and collect the Moonstone Roses now?"
After making sure that it has some guarantee of its life, the Devil Serpent urged Leo to collect the Moonstone Roses.
"Sure but can you move after taking nearly a hundred punches from me?"
Leo was surprised that the devil serpent was in a hurry to find the Moonstone Roses despite being heavily injured by him without asking for a break.
"It\'s alright! I can manage. The important thing is to collect the Moonstone Roses. The sooner you complete the challenge, the higher your reward will be…hiss."
The Devil Serpent seemed to be in a hurry to help Leo in completing his challenge.
\'Huh? Something is definitely not right!\'
On the other hand, Leo felt the Devil Serpent was planning something; however, he still didn\'t understand what.
The Devil Serpent\'s life core was already in his hands and there was no way it would do something funny with me.
\'Wait a second.\'
Suddenly, Leo realized something as he looked at the life core in his hands.
"Since you can manage, let\'s not waste any time then."
Leo didn\'t know whether he could get a higher reward for clearing the floor ahead of time; however, he wanted to give it a try and learn about it.
"Before that, wait a moment."
Nevertheless, he didn\'t move from his position; instead, he asked the Devil Serpent to wait, making it hiss in silence.
\'Puchi\'
Leo lightly bit his finger and dropped his blood on the life core in his hands.
"What are you doing? Stop it."
The Devil Serpent that was calmly waiting for Leo became anxious and jumped at Leo to stop him from dropping his blood on the life core.
However, it was too late to stop Leo as the Devil Serpent\'s life core was completely covered in Leo\'s blood.
\'Swoosh\'
The Devil Serpent which was jumping at Leo was pushed away by some mysterious energy emitted by the life core, stopping it from attacking Leo.
"What am I doing? I am making you my Beast Companion."
Looking at the Devil Serpent in the distance, Leo replied with a scoff.
\'Damn it…how did this human know about it? He didn\'t even know where to find the Moonstone Roses on this floor and the life core itself until I explained about it but how…just how…hiss?\'
Never in its wildest dreams the Devil Serpent thought that it would become a Beast Companion to someone from the human race.
"Now, shall we go and complete this floor\'s challenge?"
Leo asked the Devil Serpent with a slight smile on his face which was the devilish smile that the Devil Serpent had ever seen.
